The Top Five ‘MI vs CSK’ Matches in IPL

5. CSK vs MI, Chennai, April 23, 2008:

This listicle started with the most recent match between the two sides, and it ends with their first-ever match. This match was all about the batsmen as more than 400 runs were accumulated on the day. Yet again, Mumbai Indians won the toss and elected to bowl first.

Matthew Hayden was sensational for the Yellow Army. He struck 12 boundaries and 2 sixes during his classic knock of 81 runs, which came off 46 deliveries. Raina’s 53 (37) and Dhoni’s 30 (16) meant that Chennai Super Kings would cross the 200 run threshold, which would always be hard to chase.

In response, Mumbai Indians kept losing wickets at regular intervals. Robin Uthappa tried to anchor the run chase with his 43-run performance, but he lost his wicket. Abhishek Nayar gave his best attempt to secure the win for his local side. His unbeaten 45 came off just 20 balls, but he didn’t receive much support from the other end, and the Indians fell 6 runs short.

  • Man of the Match: Matthew Hayden
  • Result: CSK won by 6 runs
